Mid-Century Maneuver @ CooCoo U

Mid-century modern furniture and accessory lovers can now rejoice. Owner of CooCooU, Michael Merisola, has purchased a warehouse building on Chandler Street in North Buffalo, directly next to Horsefeathers, with the intention of featuring a massive collection of retro finds on the building’s sprawling second floor. If that wasn’t enough, Michael has also created an breathtaking showroom for select pieces on the first floor, rivaling serious mid-century showrooms in Toronto and New York. Michael’s intention for the future is to maintain the Chandler Street warehouse and showroom as his primary commercial headquarters that will be open to the public with regular retail hours.

This week Michael opened the doors of the building to give the public a glimpse of what will soon be the culmination of his dreams (if anyone dreams about mid-century modern, it’s this guy). To draw attention the project, Michael hosted a warehouse sale this week (run by Stock Exchange – sale ended today), drawing mid-century lovers from across the region to check out his new location. Being situated next to Horsefeathers certainly added to the dynamic draw of the street (see why). This sleepy neighborhood has limitless potential that is finally being realized (more good news to come shortly).

It won’t be long before CooCooU on Chandler opens its doors for good – if you missed the sale and you live in Buffalo, don’t worry… there’s still a ton of great stuff to be found when the place opens for good. Michael told me that he hasn’t even begun to sort out the design pieces on the third floor of the warehouse, but over time he will be bringing that collection downstairs to sell on the show floors.

As for CooCoo U’s longstanding location on Hertel, I’ve heard rumors that a deal might be in the works for a retro-style antique shop take over the storefront, which would help to keep the street’s mid-century shopping image intact. It was Michael Merisola who first brought the scene to Hertel after moving from a storefront in Allentown 25 years ago. It turned out that Michael was an early pioneer on Hertel, and his efforts have paid off for North Buffalo for years. Now it looks like he’s set his sights on an even more ambitious project.

Town Ballroom’s music promoter Artie Kwitchoff told me a funny story about CooCoo U earlier today while I was at the Chandler Street location. He said that over the years, every time that Mike Ness, singer, guitarist and songwriter for Social Distortion, plans to come to Buffalo he ends up bringing an empty trailer with him and stays an extra day just so that he can shop at CooCoo U (and select other places around the city). Apparently Buffalo is one of his favorite places to shop, and it’s businesses like CooCoo U that blow his mind. That’s pretty cool… just wait until Mike Ness discovers CooCoo U’s new digs – he’s going to have to bring a second empty trailer and stay for a third day when see what has transpired!

I saw the advertisement and went to their fb page but it was all very vague and… sketchy? There weren’t any details alluding that it was anything other than some random warehouse/flea sale, let alone an actual business or a connection to coocoo. The Chandler address made me think of Horsefeathers and ridiculously priced crap so that didn’t help.
Seeing this article prior to the sale would’ve been nice.

thisoldcrackhouse

It’s interesting that Buffalo has such an ample supply of this type of decor. Buffalonians embraced mid-century modern art as well. I wonder how much influence the collection of the Albright-Knox had on the decor choices people made back then.

Rand503

And I wonder to what extent the popularity of Mad Men has on the sale of such items?

Rand503

Wouldn’t it be cool to have a historical house selected that would be appropriate to furnish with all the mid-century furnishings? Surely there is something around the Delaware district that would suffice. It could be a great museum for the promotion and understanding of mid-century American design.

I have known Micheal for a few years now and I must say coming from Toronto it’s a pleasure to deal with someone whose selection and knowledge of Art Deco/ mid century is so vast ; his prices are reasonable and it’s almost an outing spending time at his Chandler location and having him explain the significance and providence of every piece. Micheal is really a professional in the antique community and not just one of this pop up knowledge less stores selling crap which unfortnueatly proliferates in Toronto.

So is he closing the Hertel ave location? Too bad if h does..

I went to place in Calif. last spring where there is an abundance (if not a glut) of mid century homes. In fact, I was there for something like Mid Century Week promoted and celebrated by that city. We spent the better part of a day touring neighborhoods, open houses, shopping malls, and hotels all on that theme. It was like stepping into an episode of The Jetsons.
There was so much redundancy that it was clear that most of the furniture consisted of reproductions. I asked some of the docents about it and she replied that not only were they repros but they were also expensive.
I can remember my childhood home Buffalo that for a time was decorated in that style that my mother identified as Danish Modern. I thought it was an absurd design for an older home with authentic woodwork floors and trim along with detailed, floral themed wallpaper. So, I also ask where would one go to find suitable homes for this decor in the Buffalo area?

i love chandler street. great old factories there.
best of luck to coocoo. i guess those of us with queen annes are not going to be able to find late 19th century anymore. 🙂

That warehouse building on Chandler St is in Black Rock, not North Buffalo.

The next generation of jazz

Event Details

The next generation of jazz greats visits the Performing Arts Center. Vincent Ingala, Jonathan Fritzen and Buffalo’s own Cindy Bradley take the stage showcasing their musical prowess. The concert features the fastest emerging contemporary jazz artists performing together on one stage. This unprecedented event features Ingala on saxophone, Fritzen on keys, and the Buffalo homecoming of Cindy Bradley on trumpet.

Vincent Ingala has blasted into an exciting stratosphere of his own making since his 2010 critically acclaimed debut album, North End Soul. One of the fastest emerging contemporary jazz recording artists in recent history, multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer, is still only in his early twenties, the charismatic saxophonist has been named Billboard Smooth Jazz Artist of the Year in 2012, Sirius XM Watercolors Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2013, and his music is consistently found atop the most noteworthy music charts in the world, including three number one hits on the Billboard Smooth Jazz Chart, five singles in the Billboard Smooth Jazz Top 10, as well as an unprecedented 25 weeks at #1 on SmoothJazz.com’s Top 50 Independent Chart and #15 on SmoothJazz.com’s 2014 Year End Chart.

Jonathan Fritzen has quickly risen up the smooth jazz ranks with emotionally engaged music filled with melodic hooks, layered textures, and genuine musicianship. Considered one of the hottest composers and keyboard players in instrumental jazz, his latest work, Fritzenized became a chart topper before it was even released. It is the Swedish American’s fifth solo CD and follows the critically acclaimed Magical from which the title cut blasted a path to #1 on every smooth jazz airplay chart on the planet.

Buffalo native Cindy Bradley is not only keeping the trumpet and flugelhorn hip, she’s also continues her knack for picking spot on album titles. Calling her 2009 debut Bloom proved prophetic, as the multi-talented performer blossomed into a powerful and charismatic presence at radio and on the contemporary jazz festival circuit. Along the way, Cindy performed everywhere from the River Raisin’ Jazz Festival in Monroe, Michigan to the Dubai Jazz Fest. She won Best New Artist at the American Smooth Jazz Awards and was named Debut Artist of the Year by the Catalina Island Jazz Trax Festival and Smooth Jazz News. How to follow up? Easy. Don’t over-think or worry about everyone’s great expectations. Like a lot of the most exciting moments in life, it’s sometimes just best to go Unscripted—the perfect moniker for the whimsical spirit and stylistic diversity that drives Cindy’s new album.
